Plans Employment for a Million U. S. Hardwood Exports to Through Federal Forestry \(/ork England Show lncrease

Employment affecting a million people and an income producing and self-liquidating project involving forest lands has been submitted to President Hoover's Timber Conservation Board by George D. Pratt, president of the American Forestry Association and a member of the board.

The plan calls for an investment by the government of $100,000,000 of its emergency unemployment funds in forest fire protection, forest insect and disease control, timber improvement, reforestation and erosion control. This would provide nearly 32,000,000 working days a year for the unemployed and place more than $27,000,000 in immediate circulation through the purchase of materials and supplies, Mr. Pratt told the board.
